They say you can have anything you want if you get down on your knees and pray but I got no time to beg forgiveness when I'm scraping from day to day. And they tell me there's a new sensation a spark of hope from another generation so I go looking for motivation but all I'm seeing is exploitation Well you won't get me in your slaughterhouse won't hang me on your hook I won't be just another number to stick in your books. Say you can have what you desire all you got to do is sell your soul I got no reason to believe in a devil I'm just looking for the ultimate goal And they tell you there's a new solution get in line for the next revolution if you pay your contribution You're there - in another institution Well you won't get me in your slaughterhouse won't hang me on your hook I won't be just another number to stick in your books. If it's support you need I'll be on your side IfI feel the case is justified but I won't jump in with my eyes shut tight I've got to know what I've got to fight I've seen too much of wanton destruction I know it's a laugh, such sweet seduction, but we gotta be smart, gotta get it right got to be on the ball if we're going to survive. Well you won't get me in your slaughterhouse won't hang me on your hook I won't be just another number to stick in your books Well you won't get me in your slaughterhouse won't hang me on your hook I won't be just another number to stick in your books.
